Hi! Which operating system do you work with? Have you ever considered to just use an "color inversion" effect (compiz, under linux, offers something like that, and if I remember well you can invert single windows rather than the whole desktop). This would save your time to customize LyX, if color inversion is your real aim. FWIW, I am a new user (started with LyX this summer) and the changes that have been introduced with the new release (1.6) are many and important. I had a look back to 1.5.x and I don't think I would be the same happy using LyX 1.5 now. My guess is that there are new stuff in the documentation. Of course, more experienced users or devs are most appropriate to answer this. Kind regards, Nikos
